Eugene Silas Bivins was born July 2, 1915 and raised in California. He married Serena Pauline Haerle some time after 1941. He became a member of the joint Canadian-U.S. First Special Service Force, known as the Devil's Brigade. He was killed in action on Anzio Beach, Italy, on May 29, 1944. He and Serena had no children.

In July 2013, the Congressional Gold Medal was awarded, collectively, to the First Special Service Force (FSSF) in recognition of its superior service during World War II. On February 3, 2015 surviving FSSF Veterans were in Washington DC to accept this momentous recognition on behalf of their fellow Forcemen who could not be there.
